Why do sigils hide meaning?
The hidden meanings of a sigil.
There is no good magic, bad magic, dark magic, white magic the same way there’s no black hat hacker, grey hat hacker or white hat hacker…. these are just terms and labels to hide some actions driven by ethics or less ethical intentions.
Side note: I do manage a facebook private community about Magic Sigils
Magic is the natural form of a principle we just begin to understand.
I Imagine I have conscious access to my unconscious mind… what can I find in that “uncharted universe”?
Well, I can imagine I can find All There Is. All I can imagine, all experiences, emotions, images, messages, resources, fears, faces, desires, shapes, forms, angels, demons, gods, impressions, colors, definitions, religions… the entire Universe.
But I would of not understand any of it.
Yes in my mind, in my conscious mind I can comprehend the idea, my analytical mind can image that experience but I can’t really understand in that sense the unconscious.
And I wonder, because I do have a mind which is build to think and define experiences and organise stuff within my experience — and I wonder how much potential is within that unconscious space which is infinitely more powerful and more complete than conscious mind will ever be…
So… how can Ego home communicate with the Higher Self home and vice versa?
Through the use of symbols, the use of though vibration, intention, emotion, passion and action.

I don’t say that 80% of the books are wrong but I say they are incomplete and served their purpose at their time.
We evolve, human consciousness evolves, unconsciousness also expands, experiences create new perspectives, new viewpoints and that’s called evolution, expansion so it is only logical that what we thought we know and define as truth, to render obsolete. As it is no longer serving the purpose and no longer defines the reality for which was designed to define.
That being said and bringing myself back from the imaginative state from which I did created the experience of me wondering around within the realms of my own unconsciousness let’s go back to why sigils hide meaning.
Is it so nobody can hack it?
Yes, sigils can be hacked but No, it is not the reason, but can be.
It is so you can hide the intention?
No, it is not that… If you have a good intention powering-up your sigil than the dumb fear of “I need to hide the intention from other’s eye” will do just that, replace your good and positive intention with a fear based one… And you wait and you wait and you wait some more for your sigil to manifest your “good intention”… and it will never do….”Why magic doesn’t work? Why my sigil fails? This is one of the reasons… fear energy bigger than intention energy which corrupts the sigil…and you get a bounce back negative manifestation because of that… sigil worked…”
There are many other reasons one can invent for themselves and many books have kind of promoted the same eronated ideas and people who use magic sigils tend to generate frustration rather than manifesting their desires through the help of magic sigils.

There are individuals who are attracted to the idea of magic and the visual aspect of a magic sigil but have no additional information about the meaning.
This is a fear based example so you better understand this particular aspect.
Some sigils look cool, but their purpose is not “I am financially happy” even if the description of the creator does say that.
“Nothing stops me to describe the sigil as bringing, luck, abundance, strength, wisdom, love, manifested to the user but to do the opposite.
Basically deceive them and in fact my intention to have access to all of their resources.”
They of consumed their energy, time and focus, charging the sigil, activating and even sacrifice some other dreams into this intentions and the sigil would of manifest all the good stuff for me.
There are various reasons for “encrypting a sigil” and most of them are fear based knowledge, others to seem more appealing…
- It is a “popular” practice among some individuals practicing chaos magic (mostly)
- Some entities which rely on fear based beliefs
- Avoid karmic debt
- Psychological manipulation

Now, erase from your mind all the bulshit and stick to what is working for you.
Be bold enough to even take Austin Osman Spare’s faime, glory and popularity and doubt it because all we experience is not so real until you make it real.
And cherry from the top of the magic cake… most magic documents, books, scripts, translations one is stumbling upon are altered, corrupted by an entity which doesn’t offer access to power to the masses so, with time has purchased all the real magic “documentation” from all over the world, paid in gold, silver and titles and hired monks to translate all these knowledge…
What was the “the church” currency ? Knowledge.
Not once the Church offered rewards to bandits, vikings who rob monasteries where these scripts were forged to empower the idea of value for the forgeries they have created, hiding the real magic.
Same goes with pagan celebrations replaced by christian’s holidays, with holistic places, pagan temples, settlements, worshiping houses where Christianity build the Church on the bones of the “old gods”
Again this is another fear based conspiracy-theory which kind of gains popularity in the mainstream.
What is the final message I am trying to convey?
Trust yourself. Question everything and you will discover many aspects of yourself. Stuff you prefer, stuff you don’t.
“Know Thyself”
